Welcome the warm season with a refreshing wine slushie made from Pinot Grigio and Grand Marnier. Enjoy its delightful fruitiness as you soak in the sunshine this Spring or Summer. The perfect drink to cool off and relax with friends and family. So grab a glass and savor the smooth, frozen flavor of your favorite wine.
Quality Pinot Grigio is key to pulling off this gorgeous wine slushie cocktail. My favorite (and affordable) Pinot Grigio is Santa Margherita. It will run you around $20 but so worth it. Another great Pinot Grigio is Attems 2014. It is hard to find and I have to special order it through my wine shop. Keep a look out for it! It has a clean and refreshing flavor.
I have a well-stocked liquor and wine cabinet so I turned to my refrigerator and pulled out all of my possible mixers. I had frozen fruit juices in an ice cube tray with cocktails in mind a day earlier. Now that everything was out on my counter we answered the question with, “No, we got this!”And this frozen wine slushie was born!
I brought out the blender, threw in a few ingredients, and with a quick spin of the blades poured a glass. My good friend Brandi, and trusted taste tester approved the cocktail. I present to you: The Pinot Slush.
